The trip report you have all been waiting for is now uploaded. Here it is on American Eagle CRJ 900. I flew from Phoenix, AZ to Flagstaff, AZ. After 13 months, I flew up to Flagstaff on the CRJ 900. American Eagle only operates the CRJ 900 during Holiday weekends. 95% of the time, they operate the CRJ 700. The videos and trip report are much much better compared to when I went last year. This aircraft had filthy windows, but it was not as bad as when I went 13 months ago. Furthermore, I am so incredibly sorry that video stabilization was turned on. I restored my Samsung Galaxy S9 due to downloading an app that screwed the phone up. I forgot to turn off video stabilization. Please forgive me for this. It explains why the quality looks like the iPhone 5. Anyways, more things to point out:

-It was not so crowded as it typically is during Thanksgiving weekend. I ended up checking in my luggage. It was rather empty compared to the usual passenger traffic.

-The gate agent made the announcements this time. I was hoping it would be the automated announcements.

-Many elevator enthusiasts will discover that Terminal 4 had Montgomery Vector elevators, not Montgomery G&P elevators. I was so happy to have found the last original Montgomery Vector elevator in all of terminal 4. The video will be edited and will go up on my elevator channel. I will end up retaking the video because video stabilization was turned on.

-I will fly out of gate B1 again. I want to retake both the elevator and the boarding because video stabilization was turned on. I plan to book a flight to another Arizona town on the same day in the future if one is operating out of this gate. I will make sure it has a back window seat available too.

-For elevator enthusiasts, if you want to ride this elevator, you cannot get off on 1. I almost got locked outside. You cannot access the plane using the elevator, unless you are with an airport employee or if the door was open. The door was closed. I was not aware of it. I went back up and used the escalators. In the future, when I retake the elevator, I will just go down and back up. Though the big sign is there, I wonder why the door outside was closed.

-It was after the pushback that I realized video stabilization was turned on. I plan to retake the pushback in the future. It would be going to another Arizona town, either Yuma, AZ or Tucson, AZ.

-In Flagstaff, winds shifted when we got there. We were supposed to land on RWY 3 because winds were coming from the ENE. When we got there, winds shifted to SSW. Had this not happened, 55 seconds of the landing video would have not been blurry.

-These videos are much much better than in my legacy trip report from last year.

I hope you all enjoy. Here is a link to my legacy trip report I took in October 2019:
